SENIOR SECONDARY SCHOOL CURRICULUM: ISSUES AND STRATEGIES FOR EFFECTIVE IMPLEMENTATION
Abstract
Curriculum and education have been described as Siamese twins. The importance of curriculum in any educational enterprise cannot be overemphasized. The Nigerian educational sector has been experiencing various challenges in terms of the output of its graduates. This is as a result of the fact that students are fallen short of the standards in skills acquisition and understanding needed to participate effectively in the economic, scientific and political environment later in life, despite government interventions in terms of curriculum development and review. This paper, therefore, attempted to explore reforms in implementation processes of the senior secondary schools curriculum. It started with the concept of curriculum, curriculum implementation, issues and strategies for enhancing effective implementation of senior secondary schools curriculum in Nigeria. It was concluded that funding of secondary education should not be the sole responsibility of the government but a synergy of efforts between the government and other stakeholders in the education sector to achieve effective implementation of the policy.
